Poor

The driveability of this car is not good, especially the braking capability. Extreme shuddering when braking at speeds above 55 mph is routine. Although spacious for both passengers and cargo (will seat 7 comfortably), weight causes engine to operate at maximum most of the time (i.e. under strain). Many owners have had serious brake issues and Chrysler has not owned up to underlying design problems (insufficient brakes). Interior trim is also very basic in this model and looks cheap.

very good

I bought a Limited with 98,000 miles on it. A couple switches went bad, Replaced the radiator at 130k, Lt window regulator at 140k and still have it at 151k. Been great but it's time for a new vehicle. Gas mileage could be better and no stow n go seats.
